This book describes potentiometric methods for determining stability constants and explains how these constants can be used to describe metal ion speciation in complex environmental and biological systems. It also provides three original computer programs on disk for calculating stability constants and for using them to determine concentrations of molecular species in solution. Numerous sample calculations show how to avoid common errors. The authors give examples of calculations for simple metal chelates, for metal complexes of large organic molecules, and for mixtures containing several metal ions and complexing agents in aqueous solution. They also describe common errors in calculating stability constants and how to avoid them.
